Scholarly works cited in this text include David Brion's "Some Themes of Counter-Subversion," and Norman Cohn's The Pursuit of the Millennium, which the author argues addresses the same phenomenon as this work. This work's second section takes as a "suitable point of departure," a book written by John Robison directed against an organization founded by Adam Weishaupt, while later this work asserts that "Anti-Catholicism has always been the pornography of the Puritan." In this work, a sermon preached by Jedediah Morse, as well as an excerpt from the Texas State Times are quoted as examples of the persistence of the titular phenomenon, and its other notable sections include a discussion of "Illuminism and Masonry" as well as an analysis of why the practitioners of the titular rhetoric feel dispossessed. Noting that the titular institution "has often been an arena for angry minds," and citing the John Birch society as an example of the titular practice "in action," for ten points, identify this essay by Richard Hofstadter which analyzes the rhetoric of conspiracy theories.
